Hi.
I have been using libwww for measuring the response times of
various URLs. Recently, after the redirect from http://www.hotmail.com to http://lc3.law5.hotmail.passport.com/cgi-bin/login,
I have not been able to successfully
access the hotmail URL. Using the simplest lwp-request
program:
lwp-request.pl http://www.hotmail.com
or
lwp-request.pl http://lc3.law5.hotmail.passport.com/cgi-bin/login
(the redirected URL)
both result in the following error:
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>An Error Occurred</TITLE></HEAD> <BODY> <H1>An Error Occurred</h1> 500 Internal Server Error </BODY> </HTML> However, if I telnet into lc3.law5.hotmail.passport.com on
port 80 and do a GET /cgi-bin/login, I am
able to retrieve the site contents. Using a Web browser,
of course, also does not give any problem.
Does anybody know why libwww cannot handle this
case?
